Muller, Herbert J. : Science and criticism. The humanistic tradition in contemporary thought.
- description
- additional information
PROF. MULLER, who is a professor of English, is perturbed at the incoherence and lack of standards in modern literature and modern life; as well he may be. He here expounds and criticizes (with good knowledge, sound sense and a pretty wit) many recent scientific theories in all branches, apparently because he thinks a better knowledge of them would improve literary standards. It is almost as though he thought “Macbeth” would be improved by substituting three psycho-analysts for the witches, or “Paradise Lost” by introducing Einstein's theory and the expanding universe.
